Re: Nelson's garage

I  don't remember mom telling me that part.
I have a friend who used to live on 110th near Vermont. He remember going to that gas station in the 50's so it must have reopened at one point.
The white building in the back was a co-op during the Depression. Mom says they went to meetings there.

I wonder who your Mom was supposed to call on the gas station phone.  Any idea?  It must have been a rather important call.

Hi Al,
I like that.  I remember many folks didn't have phones in those days.  Today your Mom and Dad wouldn't have met because everyone, even children have phones. Most everyone had a radio.  But remember those early TV days when we would go over to Diane's house to watch Hopalong Cassidy on the Sharp's TV?

Hi Al,
I think I remember the station, but it had been closed for a while when I was about 9 or 10 years old (1946-7).  The white building in the background was "L" shaped, which you can't see because the back part of the "L" is behind the station building.  That back part was Morgan's hardware store before it moved to their new building somewhere around 109th and Vermont.  I remember buying my first crescent wrench there.  

Where was the station where your Dad worked when he met your Mom?

Re: Nelson's garage

I don't think I was ever at Diane's in those days. We didn't get a TV till about 1954. I remember watching TV at my grandparents house on 112th.  Grandpa liked the wrestling, and  I also remember Spade Cooley.
